[QUOTE="The Dave, post: 1466681, member: 622843"] Interesting...isn't Beilein know for reinforcing fundamentals? Didn't he spend the first 10 minutes of each practice on the art of passing (chest pass, bounce pass, etc.)? I imagine some of his basic coaching methods won't translate well in the NBA (I don't think Wooden's "here is how you put on your socks" method would have been effective in the NBA either :) ). I guess the assumption is he doesn't NEED to do that in the NBA. He's definitely a good recruiter and developer of talent. A pretty solid tactician as well. I just can't help but believe his skills are better suited to college than the NBA. Regardless, wish him the best. [/QUOTE]
